The McHale Report Podcast
The Military Embedded Systems publications are the most complete resources for developers and integrators of embedded military systems. The Resource Guide, website, and the limited production magazine (this year mailed to 35,000 engineers, managers, decision makers, US DOD personnel, and other industry professionals) can be used as year-round resources for engineers, companies, and decision makers looking for embedded products ranging from software, development tools, hardware, systems, commercial off-the-shelf (COTS), technology insertion, end of life mitigation, and myriad other military-specific technical subjects
The McHale Report Podcast
Sentient radio, MOSA and DoD acquisition, engineering talent
Momentum behind the the Department of Defense’s (DoD’s) modular open system approach (MOSA) mandate is growing, especially as it was reaffirmed by Army, Navy, and Air Force leadership at the end of 2024. In this podcast with Clif Basnight, Vice President, Strategic Technologies, Ultra Intelligence and Communications, we discuss MOSA and how to measure MOSA success; Ultra’s participation in the Sensor Open Systems Architecture, or SOSA, Consortium; speeding up defense acquisition; and engineering talent recruitment. We also discuss a concept Clif and his team are developing called sentient radio, which is different than the cognitive radio technology currently in use.
